Set on 4,999m² of level, north-facing land hugging Agnes Rivulet, this property is a rare find in Cygnet. A beautifully designed main residence paired with a fully self-contained guest studio, offering real flexibility for multi-generational living, a home business, or short-stay rental income, all within walking distance of the village.
Designed around solar passive principles, the home is split into two connected pods beneath a single gable roof, joined by a sheltered Tasmanian Oak-clad entertaining courtyard. Burnished concrete floors are warmed by low winter sun through large north-facing, double-glazed windows and doors, while deep eaves keep things cool through the summer months. Walls, ceiling and slab are fully insulated, and each pod has its own reverse-cycle air conditioning, so you're comfortable whatever the season throws at you.
The main residence centres on a large open living and dining area flowing into a kitchen built for people who genuinely love to cook, with a 900mm Belling stove, generous pantry storage, timber benchtops and mark-resistant cupboards. There's also a slow-combustion bakers oven that pulls double duty for heating and cooking through the cooler months. Stacking sliding doors open the living space onto established native gardens and a covered outdoor dining area that catches the early morning sun. The spacious master bedroom overlooks the property and is serviced by a luxury bathroom with a deep soaking tub and a large glass and tile shower. A well-appointed laundry with extra storage rounds out this wing.
Across the courtyard, the guest studio is a genuine asset in its own right, not an afterthought. It has a full bedroom, full bathroom, comfortable living and dining space, and a practical kitchenette, all with lovely views over the property. It's ready now for visiting family, adult children wanting their own space, a home office or consulting room, or with the right approach, short-stay or long-term rental income (STCA). In effect, you're getting two liveable spaces on one title.
Outside, the property has been landscaped for easy upkeep, with gravel paths winding through native gardens and established fruit and veggie patches ready for you to expand, all within a fully fenced, kid and pet-safe zone. There's also a serious 9m x 7m lined shed and garage adjoining a 7m x 7m carport with extra height for boats or caravans. It's fully powered, naturally lit, and finished to the same standard as the home itself. The land runs right down to the Agnes Rivulet, a genuinely lovely spot for a picnic while the kids and pets play on the flat, grassy bank.
All of this sits within walking distance of Cygnet village, a vibrant hub of cafés, restaurants and artisan makers, with schools, supermarkets, medical services and a strong festival and market calendar right on your doorstep. Huonville is around 15 minutes away, and Hobart's CBD roughly 45 minutes.
If you're after more than a conventional four walls family home, if real sustainability credentials, room for extended family or guests, and a genuine income-generating option appeal to you, this is a considered, versatile property that rewards a closer look.
